Chris Rattue believes that "there is no such thing as a vulnerable Springbok team anymore" in The New Zealand Herald.
"Get them while they are not too hot. That's the best advice for the All Blacks, when they take on the world champion Springboks at the Eden Park construction site on Saturday night.
"There is no such thing as a vulnerable Springbok team anymore. They've got world-class and often over-sized rugby players coming out of their ears, a tried and trusted game plan, the best lineout in rugby history, and an easy confidence that will help see them through tough times.
"Even their madcap coach Peter de Villiers seems to be on to something. I used to think of him as a potential weak link but with so much experience in the 'Boks, he's turned into a jaunty, lippy conductor of a mighty juggernaut."
